AB Adenoviruses  can  replicate  and  produce  disease  in  the  respiratory,  gastrointestinal,  and  urinary  tracts  and  in  the  eye.  Many  adenovirus  infections  are  subclinical,  and  virus  may  persist  in  the  host  for  months.  About  one-third  of  the  57  known  human  serotypes  are  responsible  for  most  cases  of  human  adenovirus  disease.  A  few  types  serve  as  models  for  cancer  induction  in  animals.  Adenoviruses  are  especially  valuable  systems  for  molecular  and  biochemical  studies  of  eukaryotic  cell  processes.  They  are  also  useful  vectors  for  gene  therapy  approaches.
